Alexander McQueen Mens F/W 06.07 Milan

I like it so far, that could be because my final design project for school was all based on kimonos and that I'm partial to them to begin with.

Or maybe it's just because it's so much better than what he did last season.

It's awful from what I can see here. It's worse than Gucci:-)))

Thank you! I love it all, the kimono's the gorgeous suiting the furs. And the women's peices, finally some real McQueen.

I KNOW!! He has done platforms before too, S/S 05, those cloud wedges. Im really into platforms they make really interesting proportion.

the presentation of those female models fights the male models off!

L-O-V-E IT!!!

Very gangster indeed as previously mentioned but also a bit dandy as well with a splash of a sort of 17th Century element.

I find myself hoping he carries the kimono theme over to his womens collection.

With his talent for cut and the dramatic lines of a kimono....it could be amazing.

[Diorling]

Hold on a second. Did anyone see the Men's Novak!?

[Honey~Blade]

Is that bag gonna cost as much as the ladies version

[ETROsexualJ]

Nothing pleasing whatsoever.

Bit of a return to form, no? I think there's a wonderful blend of ideas in this collection. I wouldn't wear any of it, but there's a lot of cool stuff to look at and think about.

[Pastry]

all of a sudden..i'm over it. i know why, i was only excited to see that mcqueen has made a comeback to his wittier style in the women's line. i was hopeless after the last two collections.

I agree--call me boring, but this is just too much for me.

This's a much more well-balanced collection than his last women's, with the visually inspiring not-so-wearable stuff and some very wearable outfits. Is the theme a kind British x Japanese one? (And I see knights as well.)

[Bidwell]

I absolutely hate the fit of McQueen's clothes. They have a certain 80's fit and pants that say: fat guy. I feel 20 years older when I try the stuff on, yet the styling strives to be so edgy. I admit I find the pieces themselves very boring or ridiculously over the top without some balance in between. Great for the catwalk (thank you) horrible for real life (no thanks).
